PRODUCT WORKBOOK 2016 – 2017

Page 2: PRODUCT WORKBOOK

Pyranha have been manufacturing kayaks in the

North West of England since 1971. Over the last

44 years we have supported local paddlers and

world class expeditions, developed some of the

most innovative products on the market, won

numerous industry awards and in the process

become Europe’s leading specialist manufacturer

of canoes and kayaks. Every boat is designed by

our international team and built in Great Britain.

Owned and run by kayakers, we are committed

to being on the leading edge of kayak design

across all our brands. As paddling enthusiasts,

we also cherish the waters where we enjoy our

sport and we strive to reduce our impact on the

natural environment. At Pyranha we make constant

improvements to our whole production process

to support these goals. Developing the most

technologically advanced materials, using industry

leading processing methods and implementing

detailed quality control systems means we can

produce truly world class kayaks and help reduce

our impact on the environment at the same time.

MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN

Technology advances at an incredible pace; we

are constantly researching, innovating and trialling

progressive approaches to the design of canoes

and kayaks. 90% of these ideas never make it into

production, either due to our own limitations or

those of the machinery and processes available at

that time, but we are enthusiasts making boats for

other enthusiasts, so we carry on.

This approach to the manufacture of canoes

and kayaks has seen us constantly pushing its

boundaries over the past 25+ years, all from our

headquarters and factory in Cheshire, England.

In 2015, we revisited an idea we fi rst trialled in 1991,

but at the time were unable to control well enough

for it to be viable for production; it’s amazing what

25 years of machinery advancements, experience

and thought can do though, and we’re pleased to

say that this time we successfully produced the

advanced material that we now call, ‘CoreLite X’.

CoreLite X is a huge step forward in the

construction of sandwich layer polyethylene

canoes and kayaks, produced with a high

degree of precision, and fi nely tuned to give the

following benefi ts:

Key Benefi ts of CoreLite X:

• Lighter: much easier to carry & paddle than standard PE

canoes, particularly for those with minimal experience of

canoe handling.

• Signifi cantly increased hull stiff ness, bringing it closer than

ever to composite performance.

• Greater durability, meaning you can forget your worries and

lose yourself in the adventure.

“To lift a CoreLite X boat is as if you’ve spent

months getting fi t, and to paddle one is as though

you’ve had an upgrade to a Kevlar/Carbon

Lightweight construction too!”

– Graham Mackereth, Founder & MD of Venture

Canoes / Pyranha Mouldings Ltd.

LATEST MATERIAL ADVANCEMENTS

P&H Delphin’s, Scorpio’s and all Venture Canoes are available in CoreLite X.

Due to the nature of polyethylene roto-moulding some slight variations may occur. Please use this chart as a general guide only. E&OE.

Optimal load weight is the weight of the paddler when fully equipped, plus the weight of any gear stored in the kayak. Please note this is

provided as a guide only and will depend on your skill level, as well as the conditions which you are paddling. We strongly recommend

demoing kayaks before purchase.

PYRANHA WHITEWATER TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Metallocene Polymer Technology And Production

Pyranha is at the forefront of polymer technology.

We use cutting edge metallocene polymer to

balance the competing demands placed on a

kayak in the whitewater environment. Our state

of the art polymers blend impact resistance with

stiff ness. This allows our hulls to have both high

shock absorbency to resist impact and wear, and

high stiff ness for performance and paddler safety.

In 1983, Pyranha developed the industry’s fi rst

computer controlled moulding process. We’ve

been refi ning this system ever since, and have

been producing variable thickness kayak shells

for 28 years. Our computerized ovens allow us to

manipulate the moulding process to selectively

reinforce high wear areas with more plastic. This

makes it possible for us to optimise performance,

weight, durability and safety in our designs.

Our custom built, energy effi cient ovens are the

most advanced in the industry allowing us to truly

get the best performance out of the metallocene

polymer we use.

Quality

Keeping high standards of quality is a top priority

at Pyranha, every eff ort is made to ensure each

boat that leaves the factory is tough enough to

be used in the conditions it is designed for. Since

1995 every polymer development and new colour

has been independently tested for impact and

toughness. Every kayak is drop tested to check for

brittleness and every batch is ultrasonically tested

for thickness.

Environmental

We have been industry leaders in energy effi ciency

for many years and our new factory has given

a 25% reduction in gas usage due to innovative

heat retention systems. Our energy utilization per

kayak is the lowest in the industry and we have

been recycling our waste polymer since the 1990’s.

Pyranha are committed to reducing our impact

on the environment while producing the world’s

premier canoes and kayaks.

PYRANHA WHITEWATER TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Planing or Semi Planing Hull

A fl atter hull will allow the boat to

surf or spin on waves and give it

manoeuvrability around the river.

Displacement or Semi Disp. Hull

More rounded hulls give softer landings

on drops, can be more stable in

turbulent water and faster.

Progressive Rocker

Smooth curve from bow to stern

increases manoeuvrability helps

soften landings.

Kick Rocker

Bow kick rocker: Helps to drive the boat

high over water and rocks.

Kick Stern Rocker: Helps boof from the

lip of drops.

High Volume

In the stern: Keeps the boat high over

features and helps with resurfacing.

In the bow: Helps punch through

features and keeps the bow loose and

manoeuvrable.

Low Volume

In the stern: Improves surfi ng

performance and play performance.

In the bow: Allows for easier initiation of

vertical moves by engaging deck edge

Edges – Full Length or Stern

Allow paddler to engage edges either on

hull or deck to give carving performance

Deck Ridge

Helps the bow and stern to shed water

and give directional control in features.

Every kayak has features that make it perform in a certain way and make it more or less suitable for particular environments. Here we explain

how each feature is likely to aff ect the boat.

DESIGN FEATURES

SAFETY FEATURESAluminium Grab Handles

Strong durable aluminium grab handles

are used in the Machno, 9R, Burn III and

Fusion SOT.

Connect Grab Handles

All our grab handles are made using

climbing grade webbing, as we only

want webbing that you could trust in a

climbing harness in our kayaks.

Connect Security Points

Made by UK climbing specialist DMM

who manufacture our security bars with

the same process that has held them

at the forefront of the climbing market

for years.

Captive Inserts

For all security bars and grab handles,

fewer holes through the shell mean a

drier boat.

Bow ‘Step Out’ Pillar

Provides highest level of structural

support to the deck, essential in high

pressure situations. Can be used to step

out of the kayak in the event of a pin

and also makes an excellent

carry support.

Mini Cell Foam Pillars

This black closed cell foam gives high

structural integrity to the deck to help

prevent it collapsing under pressure.

Hull Stiff ener

Links front and rear pillars to the seat to

form a safety cage around the paddler

and help prevent collapse in the event

of a pin.

Full Plate Footrest

Pod system with foam gives connection

for drive, pre–bent bars aid

shock–absorption.

Foam Foot Block

Easily shaped for perfect fi t in

play boats.

Twist Lock Footrest

Fully adjustable footrest, twist lever 90º

to adjust pedal, twist back to lock.
